One man who was awake when the break-ins happened was able to chase the vandal away. Alan Pierce's dog heard the man breaking in to the vehicles, causing Pierce to take a look outside. When Pierce realized what was happening, he told the man to leave while his wife threatened to have their dogs attack the robber.
Pierce described the robber as a white man is 30s, about 6 feet tall with a scruffy beard and carrying two duffel bags.
